I wonder how Mike Ayala Jnr is doing? He could really box, hope he got off the drugs and is having a good life - they certainly had a rough time growing up. Last I heard, he had kicked his drug habit and had a small HVAC business installing residential and commercial air conditioners. Lives in a sm...

San Antonio news reporting that Tony Ayala Jr has died. He was found slumped over this morning inside his family run Zarzamora Street gym.

Database also lists the Varela - Hernandez fight as occurring the next day on October, 20 1981 in Tijuana. Listed as a W12 for Varela, although the poster indicates the fight was for 10 rounds (Mark Hartman listed as the editor). :confused: Jose Caba also shows as having fought Miguel Angel Hernande...

...In my own records i tend to list where people box out of rather than nationality..... I think thats a good idea. Perhaps we should change the Bio field from 'Nationality' to "Fights Out Of" or "Based In" or something similar. Very much like how we changed the weight 'Division...
